Info about the song/album:
Composed by scalloped fretboard guitar innovator Matthew Montfort,
Yearning for the Wind is a poignant piece based on Indian raga. Set in
a nine beat rhythmic cycle, it provides a sublime setting for this
duet with Indian tabla virtuoso Vishal Nagar, who is considered one of
the most gifted tabla players of his generation. Recorded in December
2013, this evocative piece was produced for the Archive of Future
Ancient Recordings, Ancient Future's ambitious ongoing fan funded
recording project. To promote the Archive of Future Ancient
Recordings, Yearning for the Wind was released as an enhanced
audio/video E-CD and a digital download. Within a week of its release,
Yearning for the Wind rose to the top of the Ethnocloud World Music
Charts, earning #1 spots in both the video and audio track categories.
